So we did the tuning without it installed and then reinstalled for one last pull. We lost 6HP when reinstalled, but it was also heat soaked, so to me it was little to no loss.
The filter I'm using is a 9 3/4" round 3" tall K&N at the moment just to give you an idea...
I look forward to seeing what you come up with. Keep us posted. I'll get back on my own setup here soon...

What explains the vacuum in the manifold if the restriction isn't the filter. I have been also wondering about the opening size of the shaker scoops. In Bob's case I don't think that's an issue because it's open all the way around. If the only air is coming through that opening, does that choke the flow?
